As many of you know, Forty Weeks was conceived when I was expecting the amazing Lila B! Today my baby turns nine….hard to even imagine it, yet true. Happy birthday sweet girl….you inspire me everyday with your smarts, beauty, creativity and love!  

Earlier this week, Page Six reported that Kelly Kleinwas expecting a baby in November via suggogate. The 50 year old ex- wife of Calvin Kelin is a (quite beautiful) example of the ever expanding age range, resolve and resourcefulness of new parents. Then today, Page Six adds in this diddy about her Horse Jumping and surrogate pregnancy…

KELLY Kleinspent many hours this week at the Hampton Classic show grounds in Bridgehampton being con gratulated on her upcoming baby. As we reported, the ex-wife of Calvin Kleinhas hired a surrogate to give birth to a son in November, suppos edly using her egg and the sperm of an unidentified pal. Later, Kelly, 50, mounted her horse, Oz, and jumped him over some fences, prompting one woman to ob serve on the advantages of sur rogates: “If she was reallypreg nant, then she couldn’t even be riding.”

 We are scratching our heads here…is she was reallypregnant? Advantages of surrogates? As I sit here pondering all of this a thoughts rush over me like waves (some of them are even serious). Suddenly I am wondering how this might play out on the left coast? Perhaps the detox darlings could consider not staying sober if they knew about this?

For all the rest of you — happy, happy holiday weekend!

See you in Vegas…

Due founder, Shannon DiPadova continues to expand! Here is the news — she is pregnant with number 3! And what’s more — her private label line continues to grow. Check out this adorable wrap dress (I am partial to the chocolate). We are sending lots of Forty Weeks love to Shannon! I would toast the new collection with champagne if only she could join us!

How delish is this trio? And, yes, I know I was a tad Naomi obsessed (come on, she was the cutest bump we’ve seen in a while) and now perhaps, over the top. Oh yeah - did I mention the BUMBLE? She loves her Bumble…here they are on Perez Hiltontoday….

With the ABC Show just a few short weeks away, and my plate crazy full, you might assume me to be too busy to bother with the Wall of Shame. However, NO - I am not too busy for a little snark and scarcasm. So, without any futher ado, allow me to share the following information with you(this arrived via email today):

BabyPlus is the only patented, prenatal curriculum that utilizes simple audio rhythms similar to the maternal heartbeat – the only true language of the prenatal environment. As a child hears the sounds of BabyPlus, he or she learns to distinguish between those sounds and the sound of the mother’s heartbeat. Similar to prenatal vitamins which help children develop physically, the BabyPlus curriculum helps children develop cognitively. To date, BabyPlus has been used by over 100,000 families worldwide, including several celebrities. Gwen Stefani is a fan and Nicole Richie just purchased one last week!

 I am so into this…Not only can I get my kid way ahead of yours using a hearbeat cirriculum, I can expand his little pre-natal brain along side Nicole and Joel’s kid. Count me in!

You may be wondering…where is Julia?!  She hasn’t disappeared, merely taken over by InStyle.  (We are now actively negotiating to get her back.)  In the meantime, Forty Weeks has been everywhere – and the celebs seem to be taking note.  Check out Naomi Watts with her great new Bumble Bag.  And, Julia Roberts sporting a Bravado tank.  Just to name drop a few…
